Saturday Blessings! God Bless You!

Prayer for the day

Create in me, Lord, the abandonment to reach out unreservedly with the message of Your love.

SEPTEMBER 16, 2023

Heavenly Father,

On this Holy Saturday, we pause to reflect on the day that your son, Jesus Christ, lay in the tomb. We remember the sadness and grief that his disciples and loved ones must have felt, as they mourned his death and waited in uncertainty.

As we contemplate this time of waiting and preparation, we ask that you help us to trust in your love and faithfulness. May we remember that even in the darkest of times, you are always with us, guiding us, and holding us close.

We pray for those who are struggling with grief, loss, or uncertainty, that they may find comfort and hope in your presence. May they know that you are a God of compassion and mercy, who understands our pain and walks with us through every trial.

As we prepare for the celebration of Easter, we ask that you help us to be mindful of the sacrifice that was made for our salvation. May we be inspired to live lives that honor and reflect the love of Christ, who gave his life for us.

Thank you for the gift of your son, and for the hope and new life that he brings. May we embrace this time of waiting with faith, knowing that the dawn of Easter morning is just ahead.

In Jesus’ name, we pray.

Amen.
